Daily Zohar # 5202 – Vayikra – They fix him every day
Daily Zohar 5202
Hebrew translation:
400. וַהֲרֵי פֵּרְשׁוּהָ, א”ל ו”ה. א”ל – זֶה אַבְרָהָם, שֶׁכָּתוּב בּוֹ, הָאֵל הַגָּדוֹל. ו’ – זֶה הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא. ה’ – זוֹ כְּנֶסֶת יִשְׂרָאֵל. וְזֶה הוּא אֱלוֹהַּ. וְהֵם עוֹשִׂים אֶת הָאָדָם וּמְתַקְּנִים אוֹתוֹ בְּכָל יוֹם, וּמִשּׁוּם כָּךְ כָּתוּב עֹשָׂי, כְּמוֹ שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר (תהלים קמט) יִשְׂמַח יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּעוֹשָׂיו. אָמַר רַבִּי יוֹסֵי, וַדַּאי כָּךְ הוּא, וְהַכֹּל דָּבָר אֶחָד.

Zohar Vayikra

#399
Rabbi Yehuda said, I heard that Rabbi Abba said about this verse that says ‘אַיֵּה אֱלוֹהַּ עֹשָׂי’ “Where is God my Maker” (Job 35:10), it should have said “my Makers,” what is “my Maker.” And he answers, Rather, as you said, that at the time that he rises at midnight and engages in Torah, when the day lights up, Abraham awakens with his thread of Chessed, as it is written about him, “אִם מִחוּט וְעַד שְׂרוֹךְ נַעַל” “if from a thread even to a shoe-latchet” (Genesis 14:23) and so on. And the Holy One, blessed be He, and the Congregation of Israel fix him and make him a new creation every day. This is what it says, “my Maker.”
Notes:
Rabbi Abba explains that when a person rises at midnight for Torah, Abraham’s thread of Chessed awakens at daybreak. The Holy One, blessed be He, and the Congregation of Israel then renew him as a new creation each day.

And we have already established that “אֱלוֹהַּ” “God,(pronounced, Eloah)” its letters are א״ל ו״ה. “El,” this is Abraham, as it is written about him, “הָאֵל הַגָּדוֹל” “the great God” (Genesis 21:33). “Vav,” this is the Holy One, blessed be He, that is Zeir Anpin. “Heh,” this is the Congregation of Israel, that is Malchut. And this is “Eloah.” Which hints at Chessed, Zeir Anpin, and Malchut. And they make the person and fix him every day, and therefore it is written “my Maker,” like “יִשְׂמַח יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּעֹשָׂיו” “Let Israel rejoice in his Makers” (Psalms 149:2). Which refers to the Holy One, blessed be He. Rabbi Yossi said, Certainly so it is. And everything is one thing.
Notes:
The word “Eloah” hints at Abraham (Chessed/El), Zeir Anpin (Vav), and Malchut (Heh). These three forces together renew and fix the person daily through midnight Torah study. This unifies the divine aspects in the renewal of the faithful.
